special sweeper for my team?
after posting a thread earlier and recieving some very good criticism, i have spent the last few days re-breeding my team for perfect IVs. after doing this ive decided i dont like the idea of using an alakazam as my special sweeper anymore and i am open to any suggestions as which pokemon can fit into that role on my team. i am not even set on a sweeper, but would prefer something that can hit from the special side.
some pokemon that i like are Vaporeon, Starmie, and Greninja. this is my team so far Galvantula with Focus Sash Compound Eyes ability Timid 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Sticky Web - Thunder - Volt Switch - Bug Buzz Rotom Wash with Chesto berry Levitate ability Bold 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA - Volt Switch - Rest - Hydro Pump - Thunder Wave Metagross with Assault Vest Clear Body ability Adamant 248 HP / 104 Atk / 144 SpDef / 12 Spe - Bullet Punch - Pursuit - Earthquake - Zen Headbutt Garchomp with Lum berry Rough Skin ability Jolly 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP - Dragon Claw - Earthquake - Fire Fang - Swords Dance Skarmory with Leftovers Sturdy ability Impish 224 HP / 252 Def / 32 SpDef - Roost - Whirlwind - Spikes - Brave Bird thanks for the suggested EV spreads earlier. it helped a lot |
Actually, Starmie might be a good Special Pokemon, being of the Water- and Psychic-types. Starmie has a great Speed rating and Sp. Atk. Perhaps it's also good for using as a Rapid Spinner to clear hazards as well as a good Special Attacker for you. Maybe you can try this?
Nature: Modest Item: Leftovers Ability: Analytic/Natural Cure EVs: 252 Sp. Atk/ 4 HP/ 252 Speed Hydro Pump/Surf Thunderbolt/Psyshock/Psychic Ice Beam Rapid Spin Analytic is recommended because of Starmie's great speed, as well as the investments put into its Speed here. It boosts the power of most damaging moves to 130% damage if the user moves before the target. Natural cure is good, but Analytic might be better if you're really looking to hit hard. |
